Powers: Roadie possesses a variety of psychic powers, only some of which have been revealed. She is a telepath, can form shields from other telepaths, resist mental attacks, and has empathic abilities. In addition, she is a skilled warrior, both in armed and unarmed combat. Like her teammates, she uses a motorcycle and numerous forms of conventional and unconventional firearms.

History: Roadie's past life is unrevealed. She apparently was killed in a traffic collision on the Exeter By-Pass. She was then recovered, revived, mutated, and convinced to follow him by the extra-terrestrial known as Vorin. She joined a number of others with similar origins in the Shadow Riders.

After the Shadow Riders rescued Matthew Ryan from the clutches of Mys-Tech, it was Roadie who convinced him to trust and assist Vorin. Ryan was revealed to be the entity known as Abadon, under a post-hypnotic suggestion from Porlock. When it appeared that Abadon might destroy her entire team, it was Roadie who broke through to him and convinced him to stop temporarily fighting. This gave the Shadow Riders the chance to escape.

Comments: Created by John Freeman, Brian Williamson, and Ross Dearsley.
